Yeah, I get it as a tactic… but after the first two have come to nothing, and you’re chasing the game, surely you’d try a Plan B at some point??

When I heard Google had been overrun by weird AI this isn’t what I thought they meant.

Unfortunately, that is the correct result. Millwall were the better side; more direct in attack, and more robust in defence. That’s only the first game of the season, and we have a new coach and a lot of new players who all need to settle in… but there is a lot of work to do. #NCFC

That’s now four corners we have wasted, isn’t it? #NCFC

That is a /huge/ let-off. How did we get away with that?! #NCFC

Wow. Where did that come from?! #NCFC

This has to be a tactic: lump it deep to the big centre-half beyond the back post, he can stick it back across the face of goal. But it’s not working, is it? #NCFC

We go straight up the Millwall end and win a corner. Great. And once again, the corner sails over everyone’s heads. #NCFC

Can’t say that hasn’t been coming. Same old Norwich: passing and possession for days, with no cut-through… and then as soon as the opposition run at us, we panic. #NCFC

As usual… they’ve ruined it.

Why are we taking these corners so deep? There’s eight players in the box waiting for it! #NCFC

Let’s go! #NCFC

Not sure about that… I had to take this dopey hound to the vet the other day to have her hurt paw treated and bandaged up — and she takes up the whole boot of my BMW.

Most importantly: there is football back on TV, at last.

Well, I have to take things with me… Like a piano. Or my big dog. Or my girlfriend.

Huge let-off for Southampton, that. Sorry, headline writers… no fairytale Championship debut for Netflix FC.

Definitely him.

This is written in a way which is clearly supposed to come over as sage and authoritative — but is also punctuated with ‘lol’ between every thought, which I find hilarious.

D'oh!

This is funny because I don’t think anybody thinks of electric cars when they say ‘racing’ either.

There is a particular sound to these brown school pianos which cannot be replicated by any other keyboard instruments. Also, the pedal action is always either a foot off the floor, or so close to the floor it won’t move at all — no in between. I had one in my studio for a while…

Stop this. Just… Stop it. Stop using "generative AI" for anything that might actually matter, and especially things that, if it gets them wrong, *Might Fucking Kill You.*

Why does this need to be said? Why is this not obvious??? Why is this not the default way of fucking operating?! What the FUCK.

Must be nearly harvest time!

Pretty sure we don’t (unless Sequoia has stashed some somewhere and I don’t know about it).

Completely agree. There is zero need for a fixed-Doh solfa system. There is no need which that fulfils.

About 80% of my grammar suggestions from Microsoft Word are “why not use a simpler word here for clarity?”

No. Fuck you.

I will use a complicated word for evocative precision whenever the muse’s clarion song demands ebullience, vivacity, torpor, or solemnity, you shit-ass suck machine.

An absolutely pointless penalty for Leclerc, as he had already been passed by Russell, but had a massive gap back to the next car behind him. #F1

These cars are so big and cumbersome, there’s almost something to be said for just staying out no matter what, and daring the other guy to ‘get past me if you can’ — because that’s not easy, even with tyres which are half the age of your rival! #F1

Should Piastri have taken the one-stop strategy when he was offered that on the radio? I know he would have had to have done fifty laps on one set of hard tyres… but in this era of aero, track position is /so/ important, maybe that wouldn’t even have mattered? #F1

Called it during the formation lap. #F1
